About

With a landmass of 945 203km², Tanzania is the largest country in East Africa and was founded in 1964 with the merger of mainland Tanganyika and the island of Zanzibar. Safari has been a way of life in Tanzania for many years and the country has some of the best game parks in the world.

Among Tanzania’s neighbors are Kenya and Uganda to the north; Rwanda, Burundi, DRC and Zambia to the west; and Malawi and Mozambique to the south. The terrain can be broadly divided into three major geographical zones; the narrow lowland coastal strip that adjoins the Indian Ocean; a vast interior plateau that extends over most of the interior, cut in two places by branches of the Great Rift Valley, and lastly, the scattered mountainous regions. Key landmarks include Mount Kilimanjaro, the Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park and Lake Victoria. The varied ecosystems include wetlands and marine habitats, vast savannahs, and tropical, subtropical and montane forest.

The 8 292km² Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) in the Southern Serengeti has been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for four reasons: it contains crucial palaeontological evidence of human evolution; the presence of Ngorongoro Crater, the largest unbroken caldera in the world; the large concentration of wildlife, including 25 000 large animals; the variations in climate, landforms and altitude, resulting in several overlapping ecosystems and distinct habitats.

The country is now home to approximately 120 tribal groups and the citizens are proud of their multicultural heritage. The dominant religions are Christianity and Islam, the latter especially along the coast. The official languages of the country are Swahili and English, however many indigenous languages are still spoken. Arabic is widely spoken in the coastal areas and Zanzibar.

Regions

Tanzania’s natural beauty and the sheer density of its plant and wildlife species make it a top destination for ecotourists. Almost a third of the country is protected, providing habitat for hundreds of species across 14 national parks. A fifth of Africa’s large mammals can be found within its borders, including lion, hippo, elephant, zebra and wildebeest, whose mass migration through the Serengeti is a major draw for safari-goers.

Serengeti The Serengeti’s vast grass-covered plains are home to the world-famous Great Migration and offer unmatched wildlife experiences throughout the year. Serengeti safaris are famous all over the world.

Tarangire Famous for its giant baobab trees and vast herds of elephants, this wild and untamed part of Tanzania gives you a glimpse into an Africa untouched by time.

Ruaha One of the largest national parks on the continent yet relatively unknown, Ruaha is Africa’s new safari frontier. Ten percent of the world’s lion population lives in this spectacular wilderness area, which is home to an astonishing range of big game in a beautifully diverse landscape

Rubondo Island A unique ecosystem in the middle of Lake Victoria, Rubondo Island is a must for those seeking exceptional adventures in a truly wild area.

Ngorongoro One of the most iconic wildlife areas in the world, the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater supports some of the richest concentrations of wildlife on the continent.

Selous Game Reserve This wild and unspoilt game reserve in southern Tanzania boasts an enticing mix of abundant wildlife and varied terrain. Spanning a vast 45,000km, the Selous is larger than Switzerland and is home to just a handful of small safari camps, ensuring an exclusive safari experience.

Travelling Information

Climate Tanzania enjoys warm days and cool mornings and evenings year round throughout most of the country. Temperatures on Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru drop to below freezing, while the coast and lakeside regions are the hottest and most humid. There are two rainy seasons in the country – March to May (long rains) and the period from November to December (the lighter short rains).

Dress code Modest clothing is advisable in the bigger towns and cities in Tanzania and particularly in Zanzibar out of respect for Muslim beliefs. It is especially important to cover shoulders and knees. Of course, in the various lodges and camps, and on the beaches of Zanzibar, it is perfectly fine to wear shorts and T-shirts or beachwear. Generally speaking, light layers of clothing in neutral safari colours of green, khaki and beige are the best items to bring with you, as well as a warmer jacket or fleece for the colder evenings. A hat is also a must! Dark colours such as navy or black are best avoided (they can attract tstese flies) as are bright colours if you are going on safari.

What to pack? Less is more when it comes to packing. Flights to safari camps are in small planes and you will be limited to a soft bag. A complimentary laundry service is available in all our camps and lodges, and the turn-around time is quick, so we recommend you take fewer items of clothing in light or quick-drying technical fabrics.
